playerprophet! I RUN A TIGHT SHIP (haha, ship) so be prepared to be subject to MEAN RULES that will promptly be EXCUSED ENTIRELY.
Here's a couple of things I've been asked in regards to this team, so you might be wondering them, too!
But HOW do you ship the OT4?
Okay this is the only real recurring question so far.
These four kids actually have an interesting and complex relationship that may not necessarily be properly categorized under typical "romance". For example, this is how I ship these kids:
I used the diamonds to portray not pale romance, but platonic romance. In other words, Dirk is only interested in being sexually involved with Jake, while Jake is the group bicycle. Just because Dirk doesn't want to get between the legs of the girls (although maybe it happens occasionally) his relationship as non-sexual with them does not make it any less romantic. Also, this is not the standard by which I expect everyone to ship. Go! Have fun! Take different approaches with these four! As long as you include them all in your work I see no problem at all. For the love of all that is holy, please take all the liberties you want. Just make sure it's clear that these kids love the crap out of each other. Groping and kissing isn't really the important part here.
What about AR or Brobot or Lil Seb?
I'll actually have to say not to include them as a pivotal member of the OT4 (which would make it an OT6) but any inclusion of them in your contributions is very encouraged!
HAhahhaa, Dawn? You're strict?
Last year in the HSO I got stuck with the sinking Sollux/Feferi team. After seeing that disaster I want to do my best to keep things afloat! Therefore I hope everyone keeps attendance! There's going to be something in play this year that will help with that, so make sure you let me know if you disappear without internet for a few weeks or you might find yourself replaced.
(I'll feel really terrible to do it so please just try to contribute as much as possible, even if just to discussions!)
Please let me know if you have any questions!
